adv.|flightily;輕浮地;愚昧地
frivolously 是一個副詞,用于描述行為或态度缺乏嚴肅性、目的性,常帶有“輕浮地”“輕率地”或“無意義地”的含義。其核心含義可拆解為以下三方面:
行為層面的隨意性
指因缺乏責任感或深思熟慮而采取行動。例如在法律語境中,“frivolously filing a lawsuit”表示“輕率地提起訴訟”,暗含濫用司法資源的行為(來源:Cambridge Dictionary)。
态度上的不莊重
常用于批評對重要事務的輕視态度。例如《社會心理學雜志》指出,該詞可描述“對他人情感的漠視”(如“He joked frivolously about the crisis”)。
物質或時間的浪費
強調資源的不必要消耗,如“She spent money frivolously on designer clothes”(她揮霍金錢購買名牌服裝),這一用法在《柯林斯高階英語詞典》中被列為典型例句。
詞源與演變:
源自拉丁語“frivolus”(意為“瑣碎的”),16世紀進入英語後,逐漸從“無足輕重”衍生出現代含義。牛津大學出版社的詞源研究顯示,其貶義色彩在19世紀因法律文書的使用而強化。
